1 GS would look absolutely epic.

be worth more than the car

Wife's new car:

MINI Countryman Cooper S (184bhp) in Brilliant Copper with lounge leather.

Muffin` · 21 Dec 2013 at 20:25

Needs a flag on the Ariel for that plate

I want a Mini for my GF but I want it to be an Auto, so will probably have to be a diesel.

[TW]Fox · 21 Dec 2013 at 20:27

Nice, I like the loungue leather, its in my girlfriends Cooper too.

I'm assuming it that one is nearly-new/ex demo?

Jonnycoupe · 21 Dec 2013 at 20:32

Brand NEW :0

Even surprised myself!

J1nxy · 21 Dec 2013 at 20:35

It's very brown...

You spec'd it but you picked brown paint and no visual radio boost?! :eek:

Jonnycoupe · 21 Dec 2013 at 20:38

Haha it was between media stuff and leather... Leather won.

Ace!

Looks properly set-up that does. Care to share any more details on it?

It doesn't need anything, it's just a numberplate

Jez, that is correct it does spell out my name and I've been pulled over in the Scooby quite a few times for different reasons, but never had anyone mention anything about my plates (apart from the smaller one I put on the front of the Scooby).

For about 8k you could buy 89 GS, 84 GS, 85 GS, etc (estimated your DOB).
The plate that matches my username is also for sale but £11k bit too much for my liking.

7 GS is £50k, I would guess 1 GS would be around £225,000.

86JR · 22 Dec 2013 at 00:19

Voxination · 22 Dec 2013 at 02:09

Out of curiosity which site are you looking on? Have been keeping an eye on DVLA auctions for plates but not quite finding what I'm after.

Steeps · 22 Dec 2013 at 03:18

Needed a clean:

Needed to get dirty again:

I find there are so many of these places it's hard to pick one that is the best, i also find it is a bit like download sites or such like that claim to have what you want, but when you register you find they don't, a bit like those targetted search results that are at the top of google results that everyone ignores because they just take your search term and return it repackaged into a con to make you click it.

Last time this subject came up on a forum and i was in the thread i think everyone had a different site in mind, i too used to watch see what gems the dvla had.

Someone once said to try forum names for plates as a bit of fun, and mine was not taken (GN51NGR) unfortunately it was also not registered, and if they are not registered by the dvla in the correct time period, you cant (as far as i know) register them at a later date

shame because that one would probably have cost me all of about 50 quid lol
